For us the Halloween Party was somewhat of a disappointment.
It just seemed more crowded and hard to get between things compared to when we
did the
one in Disneyland. Of course, comparing anything at Disney World to
Disneyland always ends with Disneyland winning in our opinion (we even once got
into a debate with a cast member when checking in at Disney World that we were
not at the Happiest Place on Earth like they said because that’s Disneyland).
We did go to three trick-or-treat locations and
accessibility wise they are fine, but other than the one at the Tomorrowland
Terrace they were hard to find the end of the lines for because of general
crowd for the parade or going to other attractions depending on the location.
Mik thought it was all worth it for the
Spiced Pumpkin Waffle Sundae at Sleepy Hollow, though, and I am
happy to have picked up the Sorcerer of the Magic Kingdom card for my
collection. However, because we were frustrated just by the crowds and
trick-or-treating, we didn’t even end up staying for the parade. That is the
one thing I would have liked to see, but I also didn’t want to sit and get a
spot for at the beginning of the party like we did last year for the Christmas
party because Mik would have ended up asleep before it started like he did that
time.
Overall we are glad we tried it out, but yeah
Disneyland is better. I guess the biggest thing that makes Disneyland better is that the
trick-or-treating is not as spread out because the whole park is more compact.
However, I think there being no giant Mickey pumpkin on Main Street was the
biggest disappointment, as we wanted a Halloween shirt picture in front to go
with our Disneyland one. We did accidentally end up with a spooky one with
Dad’s hand as a shadow, though.
